I rescued an old wood frame rigid Folbot Super tandem from a friend's barn. The deck was totally deteriorated.I think I'm going to use heat shrink dacron to replace the deck. I'd like to keep the weight down, as it's a heavy enough beast as it is. I also need info on how to finish it once it's on. I'd like suggestions as to a good weight of dacron to use, so it's durable but not too heavy, and what should I coat it with, something I can add pigment to. Thanks in advance.-Greg
